Cables 101: Audio, MIDI, and More
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 июл 2024
- This is an INTRODUCTORY video about using different types of CABLES with popular lower-cost synthesizers and for music production in general. This might be the longest video I've posted on this channel? It's a tutorial, BUT it might be better to think of it as a collection of tutorials. There are sections on many different types of cables (patch, audio, MIDI, usb) and their applications in music production (including a few demos). I'm going to put a helpful timeline below, so feel free to jump to the area that you are interested in. If you have a specific question then feel free to leave me a comment and I'll do my best to come up with an answer. Thanks a lot for watching!
note: "101" here is just to mean that I feel like the content is a pretty good place to start. university classes in the States that were 101 classes were typically the class you started with. i don't think it's used much any more, but that's the spirit of it.
bonus joke: two students from the logic department are having lunch. first student says "Are you taking Binary 101?". second student says "No way; I haven't had all the prerequisites."

once again another impeccable and comprehensive video! thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us!
Thanks much for checking it out🙏🏼!
you've done a wonderful job of thoroughly addressing the absolute, number one least sexy aspect of music-making in a way that is informative, well-paced & even engaging. I commend you & am grateful for your efforts, good doctor nim.
The world has been yearning for this video.
People are talking it up at Cannes, but so much of that is really who you know.
Thank you so much for this wealth of knowledge. Very very helpful, and comprehensive!
You're welcome! I appreciate the kind feedback🙏🏼! I'm just about to upload a related short - a midi hack that I wish I'd put in the video (but I came up with it from making the video😀).
Always great to see a new video from you. Love your channel!😎
Thank you very much for the support🙏🏼! After this one I think I'll do a couple of shorter uploads, so should be another one soon. I finally was able to find a Korg NTS-2, arrived yesterday. I think I may do a video about building and using that next🤔. Thanks again!
Awesome! Looking forward to the NTS-2 video.
Another great video Dr. Nim! You took a (seemingly) dull topic and made it interesting, insightful, and inspiring. Thanks again!
Thanks very much for watching and for the kind feedback🙏🏼!
I'm here for your philosophical ramblings, and the demos at the end were rad! very inspiring
Many thanks🙏🏼! I really appreciate the feedback!
This is epic! I have been following you for a few years and have collected a bunch of small synths too, and my biggest barrier is getting them to talk and listen to each other. It almost made me wish I had gone modular in the first place so patching was easy. This is a much needed tutorial for the interwebs! By the way, Android sucks for any USB interface, or I should say is awfully inconsistent. I have a Google 6 pro and Koala Sample had such an interface lag that its not useable. Also, I have lost hours of my night trying to get older midi controllers to work with an ipad - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. WTF? So I am glad to hear I am not the only one.
Yeah, sometimes the stuff seems very brittle and occasionally kind of random. I'm always pleasantly surprised when something works. Best of luck with yours! Thanks very much for the feedback and for following the channel since early on. It means a lot🙏🏼!
this is very helpful! thank you for taking the time to put this together and sharing!
Absolutely! I appreciate you letting me know🙏🏼
The Sanyo Pedal Juice power pack comes with a polarity inverting cable attachment, so can work with all 9v
Always enjoy your content, thanks alot!
